What's the exact error message? How do you determine that is doesn't work? Did you set the NFS options indicated in the mongodb documentation: bg, nolock, and noatime?

There is no error message. Problem is that journal directory is on NFS server as well, and it shouldn't be. I want to leave journal directory on the local machine, as per documentation.

If your server runs out of disk space for journal files, the server
process will exit. By default, mongod creates journal files in a
sub-directory of dbpath named journal. You may elect to put the
journal files on another storage device using a filesystem mount or a
symlink.

Note

If you place the journal files on a separate storage device you will
not be able to use a file system snapshot tool to capture a valid
snapshot of your data files and journal files.
